Letting him slip out of my mouth before he could spill prematurely—I wasn't done with him yet—I leaned up to press my lips to his navel. He gave a low whine that made me laugh. “So impatient.”
He glared at me. “Like you're not.”
“I'm super patient,” I lied, resting one of my hands on his belly. He'd said I could touch it, hadn't he?
And that maybe I could—Oh God, I really did feel something move. And now it was Lucas' turn to laugh at the dumbfounded expression on my face.
“Told you the baby's pretty active,” he said.
“She kicked me!”
“What are you gonna do about it? Tell her off?”
“Nah.” I placed another kiss on Lucas' belly. “I love her way too much. Both of you.” It was true. My heart was so full of love I didn't think there was space for any other emotion anywhere in my body.
Except maybe for lust. That was there too as Lucas urged me on again.
“I know you said you're not impatient, but I kind of am.” He bucked his hips a little bit, as if to underline his point. “You wanna do something about that?”
“Only because you asked so nicely.” I gave him another short kiss, and then I went to work, finally giving Lucas what we both wanted. His body accepted me without a hitch as I joined us together, his warm inner walls welcoming me back like a piece of him that had been missing for too long. “God, you feel good.”
Lucas didn't respond in so many words. He simply squeezed around me in a way that made my breath flee my lungs. He knew exactly how to work me to make me shut up and move. And move I did, slowly at first, until neither of us could take it anymore, both of us needing more. I upped the pace, eventually going as hard and fast as I could without hurting my partner.
My partner, meanwhile, didn't worry as much about not hurting me. Heclawedhis fingers into my back as I thrust into him. I didn't mind, though—through the haze of desire that clouded my thoughts, the pain barely registered. If anything, it only served to heighten my pleasure, knowing what I was doing to Lucas. That I had pushed him into this state where he couldn't control himself. That knowledge was almost too much to handle. And as much as I wished I could, I didn't last long.
In the end, I came with a cry that sounded almost pitiful to my own ears—not that I cared. Not that Icouldcare. My mind was completely taken over by bliss as I spent myself inside of Lucas and I felt him find his own release as well.
“That was perfect,” Lucas said, giving voice to my thoughts.
“It was,” I agreed, rolling off him so I could lay by his side. “Thank you for getting me from the station. Thank you for all of this.”
Lucas waved his hand lazily. “You don’t have to thank me. Consider it your graduation gift.” He propped himself up on one elbow. “I’m proud of you.”
“You’re next,” I reminded him, my eyes straying to his belly again. “Just as soon as the baby’s been born.”
Lucas huffed. “Don’t even mention the birth.”
“Scared?”
“Not scared, just…” Lucas let himself fall on his back. “I guess I don’t expect it’s going to be pleasant.
I grabbed one of his hands and took it in my own. “I’ll be with you all the way.”
“Promise?”
“Promise.”

That following Monday, I had my first official doctor's appointment to find out the baby’s sex. Adam was so excited about this it might as well have been the screening of a new Star Wars movie.
What we ended up seeing on the screen hooked up to the ultrasound machine wasn't spaceships, of course, but it fascinated him just the same.
“Is that...?” he asked.
“That's your baby!” The doctor chirped, moving the ultrasound scanner on my belly just a little bit.
